  kunochan.com — Authority: 103
  I have gone through several phases in my various ill-fated efforts to debate Creationists. At first, I made the freshman error of debating the facts, learning too late that theists have no interest in facts, and freely invent their own (as do conspiracy theorists and UFO believers). Then I switched to contempt ...

• The Quotable Dr Richard Dawkins

  
  Mike Tidmus : A blog from San Diego — Authority: 481
  “It is not particularly remarkable that a mountebank like Oral Roberts should succeed in conning his followers out of their money. As P T Barnum observed, there’s a sucker born every minute.

• Impatience with Frank Schaeffer

  
  Bloc Raisonneur — Authority: 116
  In my role as an atheist blogger and columnist , I dont think its enough to simply exist in the poles.

There is a lot of mushy room in the middle, and sometimes the most difficult thing ...

  In the typical fashion that have made Christopher Hitchens and Richard Dawkins into heroes among those who hate (sometimes for good reasons, sometimes not) the religions of the world, we get below Hitchens distortions endorsed by Dawkins.

  Dangerous Intersection — Authority: 477
  Starting at the 55 second mark of this short video , Richard Dawkins describes the “religious” experience of atheists.   As I listened, I realized that what Dawkins was describing very much resembled my own feelings of awe, an appreciation that I am somehow alive to experience an extraordinary world.

• Scarlet A

  
  Godless Blogger — Authority: 133
  I really like this as a symbol for atheism. I’m sure many people have read The Scarlet Letter before. Basically, an adulterer is required to wear a giant red A to show they are an evil sinner.
